at the Occidental Hotel last night by an Alta re-

one. he having been expelled from Guatemala
by orders of General Barrillas. AS tho reason
for his expulsion, he stated that the government
recently introduced into the schools of that
country textbook entitled Letters to

soul and teaches that mankind was not created
superior to other animals. AS the defender of

that he Immediately ordered the expulsion of
the Arch bishop, and drove several of the priests

He will remain in this city to await . reply, the
church in Guatemala being in the meantime in
the charge of the Arch bishops vicar Dr. Albores.
Archbishop Casanova. who is a native of Qua

aloud against the present conduct of affairs in

preme Court of Illinois. This decision declares
unconstitutional and illegal the entire Or oceed-

steps. and will doubt gain their freedom.
The grounds for this decision are based on the
irregularity of the time for holding court.
